IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire, electric shock

or personal injury.

■ Use this appliance only for its intended

purpose as described in this Owner’s

Manual.

■ This air conditioner must be properly

installed in accordance with the Installation

Instructions before it is used.

■ Never unplug your air conditioner by pulling

on the power cord. Always grip plug firmly

and pull straight out from the receptacle.

■ Replace immediately all electric service

cords that have become frayed or otherwise

damaged. A damaged power supply cord

must be replaced with a new power supply

cord obtained from the manufacturer and

not repaired. Do not use a cord that shows

cracks or abrasion damage along its length

or at either the plug or connector end.

■ If the receptacle does not match the plug,

the receptacle must be changed out by a

qualified electrician.

■ Turn the unit OFF and unplug your air

conditioner before making any repairs

or cleaning.

NOTE: We strongly recommend that any servicing

be performed by a qualified individual.

■ For your safety…do not store or use

combustible materials, gasoline or other

flammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity

of this or any other appliance.

■ All air conditioners contain refrigerants,

which under federal law must be removed

prior to product disposal. If you are getting

rid of an old product with refrigerants, check

with the company handling disposal about

what to do.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove

the third (ground) prong from the power cord. For

personal safety, this appliance must be properly

grounded.

DO NOT use an adapter plug with this appliance.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped

with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates

with a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall

outlet to minimize the possibility of electric

shock hazard from this appliance.

Power cord includes a current interrupter

device. A test and reset button is provided on

the plug case. The device should be tested on a

periodic basis by first pressing the TEST button

and then the RESET button. If the TEST button

does not trip or if the RESET button will not

stay engaged, discontinue use of the air

conditioner and contact a qualified service

technician.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a

qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is

properly grounded.

Where a 2-prong wall outlet is encountered,

it is your personal responsibility and obligation

to have it replaced with a properly grounded

3-prong wall outlet.

The air conditioner should always be

plugged into its own individual electrical

outlet which has a voltage rating that matches

the rating plate.

This provides the best performance and also

prevents overloading house wiring circuits

which could cause a fire hazard from

overheated wires.

See the Installation Instructions, Electrical

Requirements section for specific electrical

connection requirements.

Through-the-Wall Installation Instructions—Optional

The case may be installed through-the-wall

in both existing and new construction.

Read completely, then follow step-by-step.

NOTE: Obtain all materials locally for

mounting the air conditioner through-

the-wall.

IMPORTANT

Through-the-wall installation is not

appropriate if any of the side or top louvers

in the case will be obstructed by the wall.

All side and top louvers in the case must

project on the outdoor side of the wall.

The room side of the case must project

into the room far enough to maximize the

balance of the unit.

The case must be installed level from side-

to-side and with a slight tilt from front to

rear. Use a level; no more than a 1/2 bubble

will be the correct case slant to the outside.

Lintel angle is required to support bricks or

blocks above opening.

Flashing is required and should extend the

length of the opening to ensure no inside

cavity leakage occurs.

Remove the air conditioner from the case.

For specific instruction, refer to the Window

Installation Instructions.

Make certain that a wall receptacle is

available close to the hole location or make

arrangements to install a receptacle.

Place the case in the wall opening and

place wood support strips between the case

bottom and the flashing on both sides of the

bottom rail. They should be the same height

as the bottom rail and the same length as

the wall opening.

FINISH THE WALL OPENING

Caulk all four sides on the outdoor side of

the case to prevent moisture from getting

through to the interior wall. Use of flashing

(drip rail) will further prevent water from

dripping inside the wall and down the

outside of the building.

Place the air conditioner into the case.

For specific instruction, refer to the Window

Installation Instructions.

IMPORTANT (cont.)

Secure with 14 wood screws anchored at

least an inch into the wall support structure.
